BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

(a) Field of the Invention

The present invention provides a cylinder-type cosmetic container, andmore particularly provides an improved cylinder-type cosmetic containerstructure which enhances steadiness and firmness when pulling out thedrawers of the cosmetic container.

(b) Description of the Prior Art

The procedure for putting on make-up includes first applying a skin careproduct and then a foundation make-up, compact powder and honey powder,after which color make-up is applied. Moreover, because color depth ofthe skin of each person is different, in addition to some peoplerequiring the application of melanin spot covering cream to cover upmelanin spots on the facial skin, thus, the make-up procedure furtherincludes the even application of an appropriate foundation make-up colorto enable the skin to present a smooth, lustrous visual effect. Thefinal color make-up portion can be roughly divided into eye shadow andblusher, which are applied to the eyelids and cheeks respectively,thereby providing a more three-dimensional effect to the face. Becausecolor make-up is separated into cool colors and warm colors according tothe four seasons of spring, summer, fall and winter, as well as therebeing powder and lustrous color make-up according to what is popular atthe time, thus, not only has this resulted in many different colorshades of eye shadow and blusher color, moreover, they are separatedinto powder form and cream form, and the same color make-up is alsoseparated into different color depth. In fact, it is impossible for theuser to have prepared at the same time many different colored eye shadowand blusher, and frequently uses a make-up brush to blend more than twomake-up colors and create the most suitable color tone. In particular,many people like to adopt the same color system for the eye shadowportion and apply eye shadow of different color depth in layers on theeyelids, thereby conceiving a simple hazy effect, which is a most safeand simple technique to prevent mismatching and overreaching oneself.

However, because conventional cosmetic containers only provide forholding multiple colors of eye shadow, blusher and compact powder, whilesome will come with lipstick, but lack an implement tray to enable theuser mix make-up colors by themselves, and are often limited to only afew make-up colors contained within the cosmetic container, resulting inthe user being unable to mix a color shade which is more suitable tothemselves. Moreover, when pulling out the drawers of cosmeticcontainers of the prior art, it is extremely easy for the drawers tosway and move unsteadily because of the block portions being at the rearof the drawers, causing irritation in use.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Hence, in light of the shortcomings of the aforementioned prior art, theinventor of the present invention, has designed a new improved structurefor a cylinder-type cosmetic container as disclosed in the presentinvention which enables the drawers to move more steadily and firmly,and prevents swaying thereof when pulling out the drawers of thecosmetic container.

A primary objective of the present invention lies in: A cylinder-typecosmetic container structured from an upper case, a lower case, upperdrawers, lower drawers and a cover, the cover covering one side of theupper and lower cases. The upper case retains an upper inner housing,and lower two sides extending from the upper inner housing arerespectively provided with a stop strip, and at least one slide grooveis provided distant from end areas of the stop strips.
